Gloucestershire College is hosting an open evening for adults looking to start new careers or gain qualifications at its Cheltenham campus in Gloucestershire. The event will take place on Wednesday 17 June 2026 from 17:00 to 19:00 at the campus located on Princess Elizabeth Way.
People aged 19 and over can visit the Cheltenham campus to learn about part-time and evening courses designed to fit around existing work or family life. Tutors will be available to discuss different subjects and show visitors around the facilities, which include a dedicated Construction Training Centre and a Fashion Academy.
Staff will also provide information on how to pay for courses, including details on government-funded free training for specific industries and loans for older learners. These options are designed to help residents return to education or switch to a new career path without having to pay for everything at once.
Matthew Burgess, the Principal and CEO of the college, said that part of their goal is to help people in the community improve their lives through education while filling local job gaps. The event provides a direct way for residents to see the results of recent multi-million pound investments made in the campus teaching facilities.
